As Bill Schuette is desperately trying to backtrack on his disastrous healthcare record, the Michigan Democratic Party is raising the question: Does Schuette support the Trump Administration's junk insurance plans that don't cover pre-existing health conditions?

In particular, the Trump Administration recently expanded the use of junk insurance plans "that do not comply with the Affordable Care Act and do not have to cover prescription drugs, maternity care or people with pre-existing medical conditions," according to the New York Times.

Instead of fighting for people with pre-existing conditions, Republicans in control of the U.S. Senate spent yesterday shooting down an effort to cancel these junk plans.

This comes as Schuette is trying to claim he will keep healthcare coverage for people with pre-existing health conditions, despite his record of trying to strip those vital protections away.

And earlier this week, Crain's Detroit Business's Chad Livengood called out Schuette's healthcare hypocrisy in a blistering column, writing:

"But don't actions matter more than words?

Schuette tried to get the law overturned in nine separate lawsuits that challenged everything from the constitutionality of individual mandate to the state-level marketplaces, in which health insurance companies were required to sell plans with coverage of pre-existing conditions.

For Schuette to now say he favored some parts of Obamacare is akin to choosing spinach over romaine lettuce from his own proverbial salad bar."

"Is Bill Schuette going to call out the Trump Administration for these junk plans that don't cover pre-existing conditions?" said Michigan Democratic Party Spokesperson Sam Newton. "Schuette is desperately trying to say he will protect healthcare coverage--but everything in his record shows he can't be trusted."
